Quote from The Very End :

What happend? And pictures please!

You lost the ability to read? and see?

The snow has finally started to melt which is good, means i don't have to dig mine and my Dads car out every bloody morning.

Quote from danowat :

^ This is the problem with "race = reward" systems in games.

Instead of racing to gain XP or money or whatever, "we" should really be racing for the pure joy of racing

Double post: There is no enjoyment to be had racing a Mazda Mx5 around the Tsukuba circuit for 4 hours. Maybe a Ford GT, Ferrari or some LMP cars around some fast flowing track like Circuit De La Sarthe or Trail Mountain.

Quote from brandons48 :

Had the exact same thing.

The rewards are, (excuse my french) utter SHITE.

Although i do recommend we stick at it. The Indy 500 onwards shows great rewards. (Jaguar XJ13).

Just raced 4 hours straight for nothing. Starting to think why i bother.

I can't say I was too impressed with that polo, this is how a small car should be driven ^^.

205 GTI 1.6, standard engine and quite a lot of other parts standard too (So it could enter the 205 cup)

The above video was his first run through, this video was part of the second run through.....

Double post.
My Peugeot and a bird.

TRADE OFFER:

WANTED: To borrow a Formula GT for two race series only, not for keeps.

Can lend my minolta/toyota 7/DTM 190E in the meantime for exchange.

You're gonna kill me.
Last night i managed to get to the 4mil mark. So i went and bought the Peugeot 908 HDi FAP. Once done i take a gander into the used car dealership and i seen the Formula GT for the second time in 3 days and i was also only 800,000cr off.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

TOok me 30 for the Nurb as well in the Minolta. I only won by 10 seconds though. The ford GT that was chasing was unreal. I do think I would have been better off with Inters rather than full wets.

I didn't go off and the guy in second was the Jaguar race car, not sure what one (was white and purple). After just 3 sectors on the first lap i was 9 seconds in front and that turned into 45 seconds when i crossed the line. Btw this is without any driving AIDS, just abs at 2. You must have a heavy right foot.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

It is fun, don't get me wrong. I have a blast doing the events. It's something I think PC racing games need.. is a bit more structure like GT... just to make it interesting. As of now it's too much "here are car and tracks" for PC racing.

Special events level me fast for sure.. but Dream Car.. 20,000 XP for a race. Mind, it did take me 30 mins, but a decent payoff for the effort.

Took me 30min JUST for the last wet race on the Nurb in my Minolta. Could of got the Kubelwagon round faster the way i was going although i finished with a 3min lead. Will attempt the 300km/60 laps of Grand Valley tomorrow. For now, off to online mode to pwn some French noobs.

Quote from Ales_M :

We all are what we are. I still love you all. (except rockclan)

awww thanks

Pfft this had me in stitches.

Quote from spiderbait90 :

There was a weird lag on the first lap, first corner of Deep Forest Raceway; Followed by some real close racing with a few of you. Then I spun into the pits on the last lap.

My Elise only had 190hp and i still managed to lap you all
Although despite facing the wrong way at the start on the Nurb i had some pretty close racing with Jibber. Everyone else got pwnt. Apart from me losing connection 5 times it was a good fun night, especially as i won every race i participated in.

Quote from jibber :

A friend of mine will be the host. Server will be up at 9pm (GMT+1). I'll post details shortly before that.

Awesome.
I'll stay tuned to this thread.

Quote from jibber :

Doesn't matter, we want to race, not chat (i have no headset for my ps3 either).

Ok, so what about this:

Tsukuba battle in Best Motoring style.

Cars allowed: RX-7, Porsche Boxster (RUF 3400s), 350Z, MR2, NSX, BMW Z4, BMW M3, Integra, Civic, MX-5, S2000, 300ZX, Silvia, etc. Along those lines...

Tuning allowed: None, except for cosmetical stuff (color, wheels, etc).

Tires: Comfort soft.

If nobody wants to be the host i'll open a lobby in one hour from now. Sounds like a good idea?

Sounds good. Anyone willing to host? My internet can't cope with that.

@Gills, i overtook you and was going to beat you. Sadly my right foot got the better of me.

Quote from jibber :

How about we set up a little LFS lobby tonight? I'd be up for some racing around 9pm GMT+1.

I'll be happy to join.
I've already raced Gills, Brandon and Troy and beat them all so im looking forward to a challenge.

Quote from Inouva :

Is this nesesary being a A$$ and make spam/troll¿?

Sounds like you then. They have a point though. CMX was made to help make skins and gawp at the VWS. You want those upgrades? Play LFS. No need for improvements when it's already there.

Quote from CoolColJ :

It has a H-Shifter, you just have to buy it separately. At least if it breaks, you get a new one, unlike Logitechs where they won't even sell you spare parts

The G27 is $450 in Japan, so I guess it's around that price

Still, i can't see people who already own a G25/7 or a Fannytech reverting to something like this. Also people looking for their first time wheel arn't going to be sueded by the price.

That's just creepy.

Quote from troy :

thrustmaster and premium steering wheel is something that doesn't work in one sentence, I'll eat my (virtual) hat if this thing is any good.

No H-shifter so already -1
Looks huge, expensive and pointless. They're trying to enter Logitechs market which they have alot of experience with, trying to take on Logitech and Fannytech, Both of which are cheaper, already compatible with GT5 and owned by most sim racers already who will need alot of convincing to make them buy it.

787B blah blah...
I raise you this! My new toy.
